Novak Skateboards is considering building a new plant. Bob Skerritt, the company's marketing manager, is an enthusiastic supporter of the new plant. Lucy Liu, the company's chief financial officer, is not so sure that the plant is a good idea. Currently, the company purchases its skateboards from foreign manufacturers. The following figures were estimated regarding the construction of a new plant. Cost of plant Annual cash inflows Annual cash outflows $3,920,000 3,920,000 3,469,000 Estimated useful life Salvage value Discount rate 15 years $1,960,000 11% Bob Skerritt believes that these figures understate the true potential value of the plant. He suggests that by manufacturing its own skateboards the company will benefit from a "buy American" patriotism that he believes is common among skateboarders. He also notes that the firm has had numerous quality problems with the skateboards manufactured by its suppliers. He suggests that the inconsistent quality has resulted in lost sales,…

Project A has an internal rate of return (IRR) of 15 percent. Project B has an IRR of 14 percent. Both projects have a required return of 12 percent. Which of the following statements is most correct? (Assume the projects are not mutually exclusive.) OA. Both projects have a negative net present value (NPV). OB.

Both projects should be rejected.

TRUE or FALSE 1. If all individual B/C ratios of MEAs are less than 1.00, then the preferred option is to “Do Nothing”.2. The concept of individual projects stems from the B/C ratio each project has to offer. Once it is feasible (i.e., BC >1), MEAs are born.3. Replacement analysis should be done at the end of the useful life of the property.4. If there is a past estimation error, there is a need to replace the property immediately.5. The physical life is always greater than all the other “life” factors under replacement analysis.6. If breakeven analysis is conducted with PW analysis for different MEAs, it doesn’t guarantee that the fastestalternative to reach its breakeven point has also the highest equivalent worth.7. In depreciation analysis, the method that will yield the highest book value at the end of n years is always the topfactor to consider.8. Replacement ends depreciation.9. If a property’s market value becomes 0, the owner has no right to sell it at a value > 0 since…
